So wait, if I put some UV lights in my car, will I go faster?

Either...
A) Black is fat, and too big to move, AND occupying both places at once.
B) it'* still at point A, and a look a like is already at point B, remember it'* not the same black.
C) It'* always a step ahead of light, and purple is reaching for excuses.



No.

The star collapses to the point of zero volume and infinite density, creating what is known as a " singularity ". As the density increases, the path of light rays emitted from the star are bent and eventually wrapped irrevocably around the star. Any emitted photons are trapped into an orbit by the intense gravitational field; they will never leave it. Because no light escapes after the star reaches this infinite density, it is called a black hole.


OWNED!!

Purple is slowed down escaping from a black whole cause of all the other colors that are holding it back. "Only as fast as your slowest part"

vesc = (2GM/R)1/2

For photons, or objects with no mass, we can substitute c (the speed of light) for Vesc and find the Schwarzschild radius, R, to be

R = 2GM/c2

:P :P

What on earth??!!?! You speak the language of monkey.

Jason, we can find out if your purple is faster than my red in spring ok?

Sez who? When was the last time you shot purple photon at a black hole? Yeah it'* all THEORETICAL. When YOU shoot a photon into a so called "black hole" and YOU record evidence, that works.

What color is a black light? Yep.. Purple....
